School Admin wants access to student cellphones

According to a new policy at a high school in Framingham, Mass school officials can seize students cell phones at any time and look through it’s contents. Officials are trying to stop the sale of drugs and stolen goods. Students are crying foul and invasion of privacy. If you have illegal activities happening at your school on a regular basis, it’s going to take alot more than snooping on cell phones to get control of it. Kids will find a way to get business done. If cell phones cannot be used, there will be another way. This is classic treating the symptoms instead of the root cause. I’d be pissed too if I were a student.
